Seek the Highest Peak

Mount Carleton Provincial Park hosts an awe-inspiring event each summer that will bring your inner explorer to new heights. Seek the Highest Peak is a unique day for nature lovers and hikers to adventure together.

Hikers climb on different routes all the way up to the top of Mount Carleton, which at 820 metres (2,690 feet) is the highest peak in the Maritimes. On a clear day atop Mount Carleton, you can see a view of 10 million trees! You will trek through Acadian forest, forge mountain streams and traverse scree and rock outcrops in a land of dwarfed alpine trees to the reach the summit.

This is an ideal day for the whole family to experience New Brunswick’s storied wilderness park.
